Meaning & Story
From the Arabic word waqi meaning "falling eagle," Vega is the brightest star in the constellation Lyra and the fifth-brightest star in the night sky — a name with celestial luminosity.
Vega burns brightly. As the brightest star in Lyra and one of the most luminous in the entire night sky, Vega is a name for a pet who stands out — whose presence in a room is immediately felt. It has a sleek, modern quality that works beautifully for animals with striking coloring or an unusually graceful way of moving. Vega is the star that anchors the Summer Triangle, one of summer's most recognizable patterns: reliable, radiant, and always there.
